29. The Deadlies ~ Meet the Deadlies
30. The Aqua Velvets~ Tiki Beat

Hard to pick a top favorite between the Mermen and the Surfites. i suppose i should have listed them as a tie. The Thunderchiefs, the Break and Daikaiju are all also equally strong releases. Dammit, i hate ranking albums.

Favorite Surf EPs

1. The Hang-Ten Hangmen ~ Surf Banned
2. The Hang-Ten Hangmen ~ Surfin' & Swingin' with The Hang-Ten Hangmen
3. Pirato Ketchup ~ Speed Surfer
4. Blazing Surfboards ~ Sea Turtle
5. The Archers & The Hollywoods (split EP) ~ The Archers & The Hollywoods

The Hang-Ten Hangmen released at least one other EP last year. All combined, it would have made one killer full length.

Favorite Surf Songs

1. Pollo Del Mar ~ "Pose of Awareness"/"Star Trek Theme"
2. Blazing Surfboards ~ "Beach Hanging"
3. The Break ~ "Cyclops"
4. The Surfites ~ " Rebels Route"
5. The Mermen ~ "Righteous Punishment"
6. The Irradiates ~ "Black Tiki Procession"
7. The Surfites ~ "Surf Reveille"
8. The Mermen ~ "There Is A Door, It Opens, Then It Is Closed"
9. Spy-Fi ~ "Herb: The Dragonfly"
10. Thunderchiefs ~ "Moon Equipped"

Pollo Del Mar hasn't released an album since around '04. They put out a download only track last year, and gave out a b-side, the Star Trek Theme, for those who asked for it. Excellent stuff!

Favorite Surf Reissues, Compilations & Live Albums

In no particular order-

The Sandblasters ~ Live From Texas
Urban Surf Kings ~ Monday Night Surf Club
The Astroglides ~ Sewer Surfing with... The Astroglides
Thom Starr & the Galaxies ~ South Side Surf: Anthology 1963-1964
Dick Dale ~ Singles Collection
V/A ~ Off The Deep End

Favorite Honorary Surf Album

Hayvanlar Alemi ~ Guarana Superpower

Turkish pysch meets reverb heavy surf meets experimental post-punk. Brilliant vinyl release from Sublime Frequencies.
